Meditation on Pranic Energy

Meditation on the Praanic Energy

March 19, 1979

Posture:

Sit in Easy Pose with a straight spine.

Mudra:

Bring the thumbs to the Mercury Mound, at the base of the Mercury (pinkie) finger. The hands meet at the level of the chest. The forearms form a straight line parallel to the floor. Press the fingers of opposite hands together from the fingertips to the first knuckle. The thumb knuckles also press together. Press hard. The knuckles will hurt, but it will give you a kind of joy and satisfaction.

Breath:

Inhale in eight equal sniffs, exhale completely through the mouth. When exhaling through the mouth, gently purse the lips almost as in a whistle.

Eyes:

9/10ths closed, and look at the tip of the nose.

Time:

11 minutes only.
